On Tuesday, February 28, a Hurricane Matthew Post Storm Forum was held at the Thrasher Horne Center in Orange Park. The Forum featured the Director of the National Hurricane Center (NHC), Rick Knabb and Storm Surge Lead, Jamie Rhome. Over 75 participants heard the NHC speak on the track, forecast and impacts of Hurricane Matthew as well as new decision making products in use by the NHC for the upcoming 2017 Hurricane Season. This event was held as the capstone to a yearlong planning process for the creation of a Regional Evacuation Plan.
